Hi Community ! Any plans in the UI to show in the
Date Range
of Flow runs, like last
15min, 1 hour, 3 hours, 6 hours
, right now we can only pick a day, and when we are launching many flows at the same time on small periods it's hard to see how the scheduling went and completion times, it's basically just 1 dot line on the whole graph. Attached a screenshot of what Grafana does around this with the Date Picker. Thanks in advance 🙂

We totally want to redo these filters sooner than later (I'm dying for it, haha), I'll keep this in mind and bring it to the team! On that note, if you know of any visualizations you've seen else where or just think would be cool that could help get the full picture of scheduled runs, please feel free to share!

I really like the new dashboards you added recently per deployment in addition to the general one, so I'm good, just wanted more granularity on the time selection as usually i launch a bunch of flows/deployments and just want to see the status of my working day more or less (1-8 hours), but it should enable any possibility :-)
btw in the per deployment graphs, you have the
8h|24h|1W
selectors only 🙂

@Brandon Reid tricky one, I think the Y axis on that visualisation is wasted, pertinent to a few, personally I'd rather see the flow on the y (gnatt ish) and perhaps bigger circles to depict duration...but going to be hard to please everyone (tens of flows vs hundreds, long running/short) as your trying to convey lots through a single visual

yeah i have both sides of the spectrum, that why i think what they did with per flow visualization per deployment (which in my case should be pretty consistent in their duration, the y axis is fine, especially that you can hover them and see information about them) But yeah we have flows that takes seconds, and other hours, so single visual wouldn't be possible if there was not this view per deployment. The global view is still interesting for the overview, and I'm pretty happy with the current UX. (the overall is more to see what failed, for timings/more depth i always go back to the per deployment/flow diagram which shows consistents graphs in my case)

I've got some mockups of a gantt chart style visualization where it's grouped by work pool, you expand it and see essentially a timeline of all runs. Like you said, super easy to get out of hand. I wonder for scheduled stuff if it's more about start times by flow/deployment or something.
We've been thinking about something additional for the dashboard that's like "upcoming"
If you just had a google calendar style thing with flow start times scattered around. Idk

perhaps a superset style chart builder and let folk choose
